From the New York Times bestselling coauthors, a charming romantic
fantasy
Mercedes Lackey is the New York Times bestselling author of the
Valdemar series and romantic fantasies like Beauty and the Werewolf
and The Fairy Godmother. Now these New York Times and USA Today
bestselling collaborators bring romance to the fore with The House of
the Four Winds.
The rulers of tiny, impoverished Swansgaard have twelve daughters and
one son. While the prince's future is assured, his twelve sisters must
find their own fortunes.
Disguising herself as Clarence, Princess Clarice intends to sail to the
New World. When the crew rebels, Clarice/Clarence, an expert with rapier
and dagger, sides with the handsome navigator, Dominick, and kills the
cruel captain.
Dominick leads the now-outlawed crew in search of treasure in the secret
pirate haven known as The House of the Four Winds. They encounter the
sorceress Shamal, who claims Dominick for her own--but Clarice has
fallen hard for Dominick and won't give him up without a fight.
Full of swashbuckling adventure, buoyant magic, and irrepressible charm,
The House of the Four Winds is a lighthearted fantasy romp by a pair
of bestselling writers.
